Madonna’s kids hate her music

MADONNA has beaten Elvis to become the most successful solo artist in British
history – but her kids still don’t rate her tunes.

The star broke the record held by The King yesterday when her latest album,
MDNA, entered the UK charts at No1 — the 12th chart-topper of her career.
Elvis had 11.

It will come as a massive boost for Madge as her last single, Give Me All Your
Luvin’, only got to No37 in February.

She has had audiences (and toyboys) falling at her feet for years but her
children — Lourdes, Rocco, Mercy and David — are tougher to please.

Madonna said: “My kids are brutally honest when it comes to what they don’t
like. They have no tact whatsoever. They’ll just say, ‘Mum, get that song
off’ even when mine. It’s hurtful but at least they’re honest.”

But her insecurities don’t end with being hurt by her kids’ attitude to her
music.

She says that with old age creeping up she is working harder than ever to get
in shape for her upcoming tour. She’s even on a “skipping diet” — like
boxers before a fight.

Madge said: “I have to say that in more than 25 years of performing I have
never worked so hard or been so scrupulous. Or freaked out more than I have
at the minute.

“My whole life has been a combination of hard work and prayer. Preparation is
essential but you need as many angels watching over you as possible as well.
I’m getting ready for rehearsing my world tour so I have been in training.

“There’s been lots of cardio and I’m doing a combination of pilates and dance
cardio. And there’s been plenty of skipping rope work. The envelope I’m
pushing for is as spectacular a show as I can. It should be a feast for the
eyes and ears.”

And you can rest assured it will be. Even though Madonna could ditch the
lederhosen and crotch-grabbing, this is the proof the Queen Of Pop isn’t
handing over her title yet.
